These are approximate measurements since the radiator is in the truck, but I get 22.5" for the width (red line) and 7.5" for the length (green line).

That's for the bolts for mounting the radiator to the body, not the plastic shroud to the radiator.
 
Thank you very very much fourwd1 !! Respect...
wow, this a strictly same as I measured, its the TOYOTA! I decide to buy from USA, It will cost over 500$ supposing I buy it in Japan...
also theres 2 shops for T4R new OEM radiator, one for 55.00$ one for 90$, how do you think of OEM parts? Is this price average? or...
Anyhow cant say thank you enough, Sincerely give thanx.

You may be lucky -- a Toyota radiator for my 4Runner is over $700!

We have a member from eastern Europe who has mentioned quality problems with cheap parts coming from China. So you may want to be careful and do some research on the OEM parts before you buy. If the radiator fails you can cause much more expensive problems with the engine.

An option to consider: if you have salvage yards in Japan, you might be able to find one at a good price. There is still the risk of failure, but I would feel better about getting a used Toyota brand that is in good shape over an unknown knockoff.

Is there a reason that yours cannot be repaired?

If you can buy an OEM Toyota radiator for under $100US there in Japan, why not?
To buy an OEM radiator from a Toyota dealer here in the US would be several hundred dollars.
I replaced my stock radiator with a heavier duty (3 row) unit.
It was an aftermarket unit, not Toyota OEM, for $92US.
 
wow, give thanx jharris2, yes I need consider to hear that, price for OEM...Quality for AfterMarket...

and fourwd1 yes I wrote theres 2 shop~~ but its on ebay, and $55 and $90 are also on the ebay auto-parts.
its must be over $ 600 if I search the OEM in Japan, aftermarket Radi too...and it must be cost over $300 if I got the rebuild Radi in Japan.

so I searching US OEM or AfterMarket radiator.
also could you tell mi where you bought the AfterMarket radiator? or does anybody have good info for radiator? Q Q Q...Im sorry;): but here is... very hot place!!

Yes I !! give thanx, tryin to search dem. hope it can be bought outtah japan.
 
greetings again, I was lookin for the GO-DAN radiator on internet fi this 1month and send some e-mail to seller. but theres no answer yet... dose anyone know GOOD radiator online shop?
 
Go-Dan Industries was bought by Trans-Pro, now Pro-Alliance.
It appears they no longer market the Go-Dan brand name, but the own Modine.

Modine
 
The ReadyRad's have a pretty good following around here in the states. I just installed a stock replacement from them for the 2.4l engine and it's working great. It also has metal tanks instead of the plastic ones that were on there. My old one formed a leak in the plastic tank. Rather than repair it, I went ahead and replaced it for $118...

The rad for the V6 is slightly larger and supposedly fits in the mount for the 4 cylinder too. If you have a choice get that one.

Here's a link to the info on the V6 rad:

And the 4 cylinder one that I have...
http://webbase.transpro.com/catalog.php?partnum=433198

Btw, the Ready-rad line is made by Transpro. ;)
 
wow, give thanx ovrrdrive!! I didnt know that!
and YES, I searched the TRANSPRO hard but I couldnt find an E-mail address on there...:confused: only phone number, I actually wanna contact dem with e-mail cuz mi english skill is ...everybody knows..
I wanna place an order correctly. did youo order it with phone? or somebody knows the e-mail>>>please help, The leak of my radiator is growing...
 
I bought mine at a local auto parts store, Autozone. I don't know if they ship internationally though but it never hurts to try contacting them.

www.autozone.com

Have the part numbers I listed above handy and they should be able to tell you easily if they can help you.

I also found the same radiators at Summit...

http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=PLI-433198&N=700+115&autoview=sku

http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=PLI-433198&N=700+115&autoview=sku

Check with them to see if they'll ship to you...
 
Yes I, give thanx again n again!! I contacted both of you told mi, and I feel the Autozone is better, but still waitin fi the estimate. also the Summit told mi the shipping cost is same or over as Radiator price...gwaan..

I tried to contact fi over 15 radiator shops, but some arent reply, others arent ship to outside US, and some shops told mi the cost is over $200... wonder why they doesnt ship by SURFACE-MAIL(SHIP-MAIL)... but only Autozone consideration bout it.
hahaa its aint easy to get the one:(
I never give up to get the American aftermarket radiator!
anyway give thanx to all massive!!
 
greets again ovrrdrive,
is the 433198 which you have made from Copper-Brass? or Alminium+plastic?
thanx!
 
Mine is all metal...

They're calling it copper brass and I believe that. It's painted so I don't know what's what, but inside the filler neck it appears to be copper.

I'll tell you this, my truck is cooling very well now with it.
